Derek Hough and Hayley Erbert are soon going to have an Autumn wedding! Earlier this month, the couple also shared romantic proposal scene photos with one another. The Dancing with the Stars, in an interview, said that he intends to marry his longtime girlfriend before the start of their Symphony of Dance tour on September 28.
The couple dated for around 7 years. They finally announced their engagement in June 2022 and surprised their fans. Troy Williams is said to be the event planner who planned out the details and oversaw the magical moment where the couple had their proposal and decision to finally tie the knot.
He said that Derek surprised his partner and is working on getting the home transformed so the couple can live together. The couple is adventurous and is happy in each other’s company and enjoys each and every moment they have together.
When did Hough and Erbert meet? Everything to know
During a tour in 2014, Hough and Erbert first got to know each other. It was during that time they were not dating, but the trip was definitely the memorable one for them! The trip made Erbert stand out as a Dancing with the Stars producer. They did not date instantly, but the trip did eventually make an impression of them on each other’s minds. Erbert stood out to Hough.
Erbert joined the Dancing with the Stars program in its 21st season. This was probably the effect of his previous meeting with the show’s producer. Hough had been a very old part of the show since the year 2007. It was way back when he won the title along with his partner Bindi Irwin. It is said that the couple began to date sometime around the show’s filming though the exact details are still hidden.
Derek Hough and Erbert went Instagram official! When did the couple post each other?
Hough and Erbert dated for quite some time, and it was all private. They finally decided to make it public in the year 2007 after they were confident in their relationship. Erbert even shared a photo of them together where they were dancing and looked ever so happy.
He even titled the post with a caption that marked their 3 years of togetherness. Just a couple of weeks later, Erbert shared a sweet click of the couple together on the special occasion of Hough’s birthday, where the caption clearly indicated the love for Hough.
It was a few months after that Hough also posted him and Erbert on his Instagram for the first time. The couple seemed to be in hopeless love with each other. The dancing pro shared very cute and romantic photos of themselves where they were sitting on the fence and a background of sunset. Isn’t that too dreamy? He also added the caption “#WCW” with a red heart.
It was in 2017 when Hough also shared their mutual interests in things, where he told Men’s Health that they enjoy running and working out together. They also have a thing for nature and go on hiking together. Hough claimed that it is working out around nature which keeps him not only physically but also emotionally fit.
What’s the wedding update?
Hough opened up about his Big Day at the 4th Annual Critics Choice Real TV Awards, which was held in Los Angeles. He said that he had already planned a surprise performance at the wedding and it’s for sure gonna happen. He seemed to be excited about the whole festival and said he was too eager and couldn’t hold the excitement.
The pair recently revealed to PEOPLE their desire for a speedy wedding. They said that they are not looking forward to a long engagement as it doesn’t make sense. Erbert also talked about how they waited for almost seven years to be together and enter the next phase of their life together as an individual. “We waited [seven years] to get engaged, and now that we are, it’s like we’re just ready for the next chapter of our lives,” Erbert continued.
